I’ve been reading some excitement about the prospect of another Daniel Craig Bond film. This mix (link from photo) was a way to channel my excitement. Please to enjoy.

The big theme song was provided by Siouxsie Sioux (“Sea of Tranquility”)

my first blog…

I so miss having the feminine version of this… it was all pink, and it was probably my favorite toy ever.

der - I had one of these. I figured it was standard issue for all Kevins, after seeing Home Alone 2. I remember I was 17, driving in my ‘84 Maxima, “singing” along to Soundgarden’s Ultramega OK and messing with the recording speeds. Made for some interesting tapes.

I wrapped up this mix to myself, and wanted to share it. After listening to a lot of Dum Dum Girls’ I Will Be, I was worried I would burn out on this new favorite album, so this is a companion disc to it. [note: click on the image, then magnify it, to see the track list better]

I wanted to throw an evening party here. On April 25th, because it’s not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket.  :)  I’m working on a dj set for this event.
